Sandberg interview

[SouthSideRyan]

Gritty is pretty much shorthand for a shitty ballplayer who inexplicably gets playing time because the manager is too stupid to realize he sucks, based on certain things he does that add nothing to the value of a team. Like wearing Affliction t-shirts

[Tracer Bullet]

but you take what you know of a person, and there's a fair amount out there about Ryno,

 

 

This is where we are going to disagree. I don't think one party is going to convince the other party otherwise so... agree to disagree?

 

no. you'll have to explain this if you want me to agree to disagree. I can agree to disagree when there are two or more reasonable ways to analyze a situation. Your refusal to recognize that Sandberg's statements (written and oral) and actions as a manager for 2 years are relevant in determining how he will manage is just not something I can wrap my head around.

Here are a couple of links that have led many on here to view Ryno the way they do. Just thought it would be helpful.

HOF speech

[Sammy Sofa]

This is getting too complicated. Sandberg as a manager at this point would [expletive] suck. The end.

[ScrubMD]

This is getting too complicated. Sandberg as a manager at this point would [expletive] suck. The end.

 

Not the end. The only people I would accept as the next manager are:

 

Ryne Sandberg

Andre Dawson

Jim Riggleman

Ron Santo

George Bell

Matt Murton

Greg Maddux

 

Anybody else will prompt an immediate "FIRE ____ (<--Whatever their name is)" thread from me.

 

Addendum:

I would give the following people maybe a month to prove themselves before I started said thread:

 

Ernie Banks

Sammy Sosa

Mark Grace

Mark Prior

Kerry Wood

Mark DeRosa

Rick Wilkins

Steve Buechele

[ScrubMD]

Also Brian McRae

I'm holding out for the triumphant return of Tuffy Rhodes to Wrigley.

Man [expletive] Sosa, he walked out on the team in their time of need. Replace him with Ryan Theriot as player/manager

[cheapseats]

Neifi Perez played the game the right way. I'd take him over Sandberg.

 

Or, since most managers are former catchers, how about Henry Blanco?

[Ding Dong Johnson]

over Bako?

Blanco would do a better job of bridging the gap between the Latino players and the lily-skinned Theriot types.
